The Great Barn Dance

THE GREAT BARN DANCE – Wednesday July 13th 2016

PAVILLION CULTURAL CENTRE GROUNDS 7.00pm – 9.00pm

Barn Dance

Highly regarded Set Dancer Padraig McEneany from Ireland and acclaimed Sean Nós Step dancer Kieran
Jordan who hails from Boston, will take you through age old sets and steps around the floor to the beat
Irelands Traditional Music. Step dancer extrordinaire Donny Golden will highlight the Irish Step Dance like
other. Old Style Step will be in the capable hands or should I say feet of our own Regan Wick. I am sure his
lovely daughter Mary will grace us with her presence and dance a step or two with her Dad. Bernadette Fee and
Peter Mc Kiernan will showcase the Irish Waltz and the Irish Jive, two dances that have lasted the test of time
in partner dancing. Bring the Family. Bring the Dancing Shoes and Kick up your Heels.
Music for the evening will be provided by The Pride of Moyvane Céilí Band under the leadership of
Margie Mulvihill on flute and her husband John Reynolds on Fiddle. Accordion player Seagda Coyle, KT Boyle
on piano and Michael Fee on céilí drums will join Margie and John. Later the incredible duo of Matt
Cranitch and Jackie Daly will being their much loved Sliabh Luachra music to the floor for a few sets. Billy Mc
Comiskey who needs no introduction any of us for the exquisite accordion playing will drop in for a few
tunes as will renowned accordion player Benny Murphy.
A Grand Barn Dance indeed.
